Mountainforest Posted March 19, 2004 Posted March 19, 2004 Which character do you like best? Some special character or a basic character?
Ewok Homie Posted March 19, 2004 Posted March 19, 2004 My favorite character for the imperials, trade federation, and the clones will be the ordinary trooper because i like just running around blasting things . My favorite character for the rebels will proably be that green trooper in the screenshots from yavin i think its the scout not sure. :bdroid2: :bdroid2: :bdroid2: The army of the Trade Federation approaches....
FlyingWookiee Posted March 19, 2004 Posted March 19, 2004 Imperial scout. I love sniping, and what could go wrong in some neat Scout Trooper armor?
Doomie Posted March 19, 2004 Posted March 19, 2004 Clone jetpack trooper! flying around like that would be cool! Droideka on second place, and yeah, i luv sniping too so imperial scout on third place.
Glacius1 Posted March 20, 2004 Posted March 20, 2004 Rebel scout, im guessing he is the same guy in the hoth map to. Im a grunt all the way, I also like just blasting things. Looking forward to sniping some shiny white armoured imp scouts too. FlyingWookie im looking in your direction:p Just kidding.

dark jedi 8 Posted March 20, 2004 Posted March 20, 2004 i wonder if the clone scout will have diff. armor? anyway, any of the scouts would be cool, and the droideka looks very impressive.
lukeiamyourdad Posted March 20, 2004 Posted March 20, 2004 I hate sniping and snipers! *shakes fist to all of you snipers* Nah seriously, I'll try them all but I'll probably prefer the regular grunt.
Glacius1 Posted March 20, 2004 Posted March 20, 2004 I wanted the troops wearing green in the endor map to be grunts, but it appears they are the scouts. And seeing as though I think the grunt looks crap(dude in brown pants, blue top and funny helmet), and I have only ever seen him with a pistol, scout it is. I just hope his weapon isnt to snipery, a general rifle mixed with sniping would be nice. Kinda like the M16 with scope in BFV.
Mountainforest Posted March 20, 2004 Author Posted March 20, 2004 Nice to here that. I was afraid everybody wanted to be a pilot, thats what I want to play. Just one problem: If I am a pilot, I can imagine it will get a little difficult finding a vehicle (with 16 people in the game). Can I throw non-pilot team members out of a vehicle? (I've heard it would be possible to throw non-pilots enemie people out of a vehicle and take the vehicle over)
Glacius1 Posted March 21, 2004 Posted March 21, 2004 I dont think that would be fair mate, even if they are enemy. If you want to do nothing but fly planes or use tanks or whatever, thats cool. But if someone gets to them before you, pilot or not, fair is fair. You shouldnt be able to just take it off them no matter what class they are, because thats called greed. Other people are playing to remember.
italegion Posted March 21, 2004 Posted March 21, 2004 Stormtrooper, no doubt. i am already testing my blaster (with a Flamethrower mod added) storm3b.avi (1.9 mb)

(I've heard it would be possible to throw non-pilots enemie people out of a vehicle and take the vehicle over) This is not GTA... anyway, I think that would be a problem, I think there will be enough for everyone (for example, the republic gunship can hold 6 people, and I'm sure a lot would rather gun it than pilot it)
StormHammer Posted March 21, 2004 Posted March 21, 2004 I'll try a bit of everything unti I find a role that suits me better. Usually that's running and gunning - storming their base, and hammering their defences. But I'm not averse to sniping, or ramming some vehicle into a nest of the enemy...
Mountainforest Posted March 21, 2004 Author Posted March 21, 2004 You're right, just wanted to point out that a pilot isn't much use if he doesn't pilot anything.
dark jedi 8 Posted March 22, 2004 Posted March 22, 2004 anyone can pilot, its just that the pilot can eject and make repairs to vehicles.
lukeiamyourdad Posted March 22, 2004 Posted March 22, 2004 I don't get this eject "ability". Does it mean that when a vehicle blows up, you automatically eject from safety? Or does it mean that other units will be stuck in a vehicle when entering it and won't be able to get out? Ok a little dumb question...
dark jedi 8 Posted March 22, 2004 Posted March 22, 2004 yeah, like the gunship. whats the use if you are the only one who survives the crash and 5 other members of your team get killed? but in others like the x-wings and y-wing type vehicles it makes sense for the pilot to have at least that advantage. i think the eject feature only applys to a shot down ship but once a ship lands that has not been shot down, then the people can get off? lucasarts needs to delve into this a bit more!
Mountainforest Posted March 22, 2004 Author Posted March 22, 2004 The pilot is able to eject if his vehicle is destroyed. It doesn't sound very logical to me that you can't exit a vehicle once you've stepped in it. I've got another question. I've played bf1942 demo to find out what I should expect from battlefront, and I find planes really hard to fly (probably I should just practice more). Will the planes in battlefron be similar to the ones in bf1942?
Eagle Warrior Posted March 22, 2004 Posted March 22, 2004 my favorite character will be the at ats. It will be fun clomping around smashing enemy troops like they are just annoying flies.

Will the planes in battlefron be similar to the ones in bf1942? You can't judge a game from the demo. It depends on what you want to do with your planes in BF. It only takes practice. I guess it won't be so different in SWBF except that the planes can hover.
dark jedi 8 Posted March 23, 2004 Posted March 23, 2004 plus the developers are not restricted to WW2 physics, so the vehicles in SWB could be very easy or hard to pilot. little ani made the naboo fighter seem easy to fly in Ep.1.
FlyingWookiee Posted March 23, 2004 Posted March 23, 2004 Originally posted by dark jedi 8 little ani made the naboo fighter seem easy to fly in Ep.1. While the automatic pilot was on, after R2 disabled it though.. he pretty much screwed up.
